This is the Porsche 935 K3 3.2L Twin Turbo #9 Winner 1981 24h Daytona in 1:18 scale by WERK83.

The Porsche 935 K3 3.2L Twin Turbo #9, fielded by Garretson Racing, triumphed at the 1981 24 Hours of Daytona with an all-star trio: Bob Garretson, rising star Bobby Rahal, and endurance veteran Brian Redman. This race was unique not only for the car’s brute power and turbocharged dominance, but also because it marked a significant privateer victory over factory-backed efforts. Bob Garretson, both team owner and driver, managed strategy and stints with precision, while Rahal, at the start of his illustrious career, impressed with his speed. Redman's experience sealed the effort, helping secure a flawless run. The win was a turning point in IMSA history, as it demonstrated that well-prepared privateer teams could defeat manufacturer juggernauts in one of the world’s toughest endurance races.
